Chapter 563 Eight Flags System
"I don't know how the Prime Minister is going to deal with those rebellious old ministers?" Shortly after Lv Bu re-entered Luoyang, Xun Yu returned to Luoyang with Tai Shici and Lv Bu's family, but as soon as he returned to Luoyang. The first thing Xun Yu asked about was Lv Bu's treatment of those old ministers.
"I haven't figured this out yet. Keep it. I don't know what else they will do. Kill it. It's a pity. Although they are a little pedantic, they are also a rare talent for me. Seeing that Xun Yu asked, Lv Bu knew that Xun Yu already had some ideas in his heart, so he said ambiguly.
"Since the Prime Minister hasn't figured it out yet, you might as well listen to my humble opinion." Seeing Lv Bu's words, Xun Yu was relieved. Since Lv Bu hadn't figured it out yet, it means that there was still room for the whole thing to ease, and this space was exactly what Xun Yu could play.
"Oh, if you have anything to say, sir." Seeing that Xun Yu had something to say, Lv Bu turned his head and said seriously. Xun Yu is the most important person in Lv Bu's civil officer system. Lv Bu has always attached great importance to Xun Yu's opinions. At this time, when he saw that Xun Yu had something to say, he naturally wanted to know Xun Yu's ideas. He must have done a lot of things in Hanoi. I believe that Xun Yu has also seen some clues. What does Xun Yu think of these things? It is also very important for Lv Bu.
"It is a heinous crime to know that these people want to kill the Prime Minister, but they still hope that the Prime Minister can open up and let these people live." Seeing Lv Bu like this, Xun Yu gritted his teeth and slowly knelt down. Then he opened his mouth and pleaded with Lv Bu.
"Well, you go on, why should I let them live?" For Xun Yu's abrupt request, Lv Bu did not say anything directly, but motioned Xun Yu to continue.
Xun Yu naturally has no speculation about Lv Bu's idea, but in all dynasties, it is extremely harsh to deal with such things as rebellion, not because the rulers are cruel, but because this atmosphere cannot be helped. Once Lv Bu let go of these people who dare to oppose him and want to kill himself today, then it will be difficult for him. I guarantee that no one else will follow suit. What is Lv Bu's prestige? Therefore, although Xun Yu was deeply trusted by Lv Bu, he had to be careful when saying these words.
"The Prime Minister is planning a strategy. In order to attract Liu Biao and Liu Zhang, the matter of giving them the throne of the emperor is now known all over the world, and their reputation has fallen to the bottom. In this case, they can't pose any threat to the Prime Minister. Why does the Prime Minister have to kill him? What about us? Killing them is just to add more killings for the Prime Minister. On the contrary, if the urban and rural areas forgive them, they will leave a good reputation. Xun Yu looked up at Lv Bu and saw that there was no displeasure on Lv Bu's face. Then he said slowly.
"I'm very gratified that you can say this. You are worthy of being the person I chose. You really have the virtue of the prime minister." Seeing Xun Yu say this, Lv Bu nodded and then said.
"What does the Prime Minister mean by this? I'm scared." Hearing Lv Bu say this, Xun Yu suddenly sweated coldly. The meaning of Lv Bu's words is obviously to let Xun Yu be the prime minister, but if Xun Yu wants to become the prime minister, there are only two situations. First, Lv Bu rises one step higher and becomes the emperor, then Xun Yu, who is trusted by Lv Bu, can naturally rise high and become the prime minister. As for the second possibility, it was Xun Yu who drove Lv Bu out of power, so that Xun Yu could also become the prime minister. However, these two situations were very terrible for Xun Yu, so as soon as Lv Bu's words came out, Xun Yu was shocked.
"Sir, don't panic. In fact, I have wanted to talk to you at this time." Seeing that Xun Yu was like this, Lv Bu began to talk about his concept of a constitutional monarchy. Although Lv Bu, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu Pang Tong have discussed this matter, they still need to have a good discussion with Xun Yu. Only in this way can Lv Bu really feel relieved. Although Guo Jiachengyu and Pang De are both talented people, Xun Yu's status is higher than them. Xun Yu is Lv Bu's Zhang Liang.
"What do you think of my thoughts, sir?" After talking about his idea of a constitutional monarchy, Lv Bu began to ask Xun Yu.
"This?" It was only when Xun Yu came to his senses and was a little frightened. It must be that what Lv Bu said was too shocking for Xun Yu. Although when Lv Bu made a move in Hanoi, Xun Yu had vaguely guessed something. However, I was still shocked when I heard it.
"I don't know how the Prime Minister is going to implement it?" Xun Yu was not in a hurry to comment on Lv Bu's plan, because Xun Yu could see that Lv Bu said these things at this time not to ask for his own opinion, but to get his own support. Before expressing support for Lv Bu's plan, Xun Yu wanted to know. How much has Lü Bu's plan been and how it needs to be supported.
"This time, Yang Biao and a group of ministers rebelled, and His Majesty must have supported it in the back. He can take this opportunity to cancel all the rights of the emperor. Although we, as emperors, have no rights, we happen to use this matter to make it public and fix it with the legal situation, which forms the rudite of the constitutional monarchy, and the things after that will be much simpler. Lv Bu also did not avoid it at all. Say it bluntly.
At this point, Xun Yu finally understood that Lv Bu's plan had reached the most critical period, and with the help of the rebellions in Luoyang and Chang'an, the internal opposition forces were completely eliminated. Now there are only Lv Bu's own people left in the Lv Bu group, which naturally has nothing to do with the constitutional monarchy that Lv Bu wants. Block. The only shortcoming is that after Lv Bu does this, it will inevitably disappoint many people, because this will mean that Lv Bu will not become emperor, and Lv Bu will not become emperor, so many people will go further and have the possibility of higher status.
"It turns out that the Prime Minister is ready. If the Prime Minister wants to carry out this matter, there should be little resistance. The Prime Minister now has no princes in Wigahai, and you can compete with the Prime Minister, but the Prime Minister can suppress the world for a while, but I'm afraid he can't suppress the world. It's too long." Obviously, Xun Yu is not very prepared for this new thing proposed by Lv Bu. For a while, it is unacceptable. Everyone must have been used to the monarchy, and the foundation for Lv Bu's unification of the world has been fully laid. At this time, people are more looking forward to a stable and predictable future than a listening. It's beautiful and brand-new, and there are indeed many unpredictable and dangerous futures.
"Ha ha, in those years, Liu Bang set the world and killed all the ministers who made contributions for him. He is talented and has learned from ancient and modern times. I don't know why do you think this is?" Seeing that Xun Yu did not object to his plan, he was not interested. Lv Bu didn't say anything more, but I asked an irrelevant question.
"That's because Liu Bang feels that his children can't suppress these meritorious officials a hundred years later. In fact, not to mention Liu Bian's children, even Liu Bang himself is a little afraid of the ability of Han Xin, Zhang Liang and others. He is afraid that one day these people will not be able to use them for themselves. . " Xun Yu learned from ancient and modern times, and naturally he was not unfamiliar with the history of this dynasty, and he suddenly hit the key point. However, as soon as he finished saying this, Xun Yu's face looked a little bad. Because his master, Lv Bu, seems to have a lot of similarities with Liu Bang. He was born recklessly, so will Lv Bu solve these ministers after he dominates the world? Thinking of this, Xun Yu's heart trembled and had a bad feeling. Although he assisted Lv Bu to unify the world and could become a generation of famous ministers, Xun Yu was also a little afraid in the face of the fate of this founding minister.
"Your Excellency, you'd better tell me about your plan." After a while, Xun Yu said to Lv Bu.
"Hehe" Lv Bu smiled. I have understood the meaning of Xun for a moment. It must be compared with assisting Lv Bu to unify the world and become the emperor step by step. Obviously, the idea put forward by Lv Bu is more favorable. As long as Lv Bu does not become the emperor for a day, he will not take action against them as their ministers for a day, and they will not be in danger of accompanying the king like a tiger.
"Calculations carefully, I have been a prime minister for some years. I'm going to give up the position of prime minister when I sit for ten years. I don't know if you are interested?" At this time, Lv Bu suddenly said with a mysterious smile.
"I didn't expect that the Prime Minister was even willing to give up this seat to others?" Seeing that Lv Bu didn't seem to be joking, Xun Yu also put away his caution. It was certain that Lv Bu could compare himself with Liu Biang, so Xun Yu did not need to have any reservations in front of Lv Bu.
"When I become the prime minister, I have to work for the people in the world. Although I think I don't lose to anyone in the world, the position of prime minister is really not suitable for me. Thanks to you over the years, how can I be so relaxed?" Lv Bu said seriously.
"If the Prime Minister really wants to promote the constitutional monarchy, he must first find a way to control the army. Only in this way will he not be taken advantage of by people with intentions." I only heard Xun Yu say seriously.
"I have thought about this and am ready to implement the Eight Banners system in the army. Divide the most elite soldiers and horses in the world into eight flags. They will become gendarmes in the army and can monitor other armies. Any soldier who enters the Eight Banners will become a flag bearer, a flag holder, and enjoy the treatment of a flag bearer for life. With the flag bearer as the lowest level of the aristocracy, it can be passed on to his descendants. However, the flag can only be transmitted for three generations, and it will be automatically cancelled. In addition, all the soldiers who follow me in the battle, whether they belong to the Eight Banners, as long as they die or Anyone who is seriously injured can join the flag and become a flagman. Do you think I can control the army?" Lv Bu has been thinking for a long time about how to control the army if he is not the emperor. He knows that he has only recently made a clue. You should know that the reason why the old Yuan family is so powerful is that the old Yuan family has old officials all over the world. Now Lv Bu uses the Eight Banners system to control the army. As long as he firmly controls the Eight Banners soldiers, he can ensure that he Their status will not be shaken, and then they will be handed over smoothly. After a few years, these flagmen with the lowest aristocratic titles will gradually penetrate into all corners of the Han Dynasty, and their interests are naturally bound to Lv Bu, which became Lv Bu's most firm support in the Han Dynasty.
